I am in my third year as Committee Chair for our Unit. I have enjoyed
the experience, but it is time for me to try some other challenges as a
Scouter. I essentially put the Committee on notice that by March 2001 I
was stepping down and into whatever position (if any) they decided I
should handle for the Unit (I hope and pray it will be ASM Venture). I
further recommended to the Committee that my replacement be in place by
August of this year; that way I could work side by side with the new CC
from August to March 2001. We held our Committee meeting last Sunday -
and to date there is no heir apparent. It is not necessarily a lack of
effort (on trying to find a replacement) but more a matter of no one
stepping up to the plate.
1) Do I hold firm to my time schedule? If no one is in place by March
2001 I feel an obligation to not abandon the Troop (read not abandon the
Scouts).
2) One thought we had was to begin a "Rotary Club" type process for the
Committee. Meaning, when you agree to serve on the Committee there will
be a rotation; i.e. Trail Boss, Treasurer, Committee Chair (or something
like that). In doing this there will never be a lack of "warm bodies" or
"heir apparents".
This is a real problem for me (and for the Committee - not to mention
the Troop). Your combined advice is as always appreciated.
